LARMO/ Nothing Has Changed - The Grey Area [Zoharum - 2024]

The Grey Area is a split CD EP that’s heady with taut beats, brooding bass lines, and very ominous intentions. Both projects come from Silesia Poland, and both have bleak ‘n’ lightly noise-edged take on the electronica form.

The track runtimes sit between four and nine minutes- with the tone throughout being grey, dystopian, and gloomy

Each artist here severs up four tracks each, and first out of the gate is LARMO. Their tracks move between the steadily slamming ‘n’ gritty beats meets purring ‘n’ doomed bass slug of “Dig It All”. Onto bleakly bonding synth bass tones, hissing ‘n’ crunching beats, prime malevolence, with moments of all-out noise unease that is “Kick-Out”.

Next are the four Nothing Has Changed tracks. These go from the galloping paced ‘n’  mechanical beats of  “All  Meaning Is Gone” with its undercarriage of unease bass purr/ eerier ambient whispered. Or there are the serrated drum hits, grating synth slides,  and taut malevolently drones of “Martyr’s Death.

As a release, The Grey Area will appeal to those who enjoy stark ‘n’ darkly gritty electro-beat-based music. To find out more, and pick up a copy for yourself drop in here
